We are currently seeking dependable local CDL-A delivery drivers in Jersey City, NJ, to join our renowned team. This is a full-time permanent position offering an attractive hourly wage ranging from $36.10 to $41.35 per hour, reflecting skills and experience levels. Drivers employed with Sysco enjoy a home-daily schedule, which allows for a better work-life balance not commonly found in the trucking and delivery industry. As part of the delivery team, the selected drivers will be responsible for operating tractor trailers safely, navigating assigned routes efficiently, and manually handling deliveries including meats, produce, frozen foods, groceries, dry goods, and other supplies.

Drivers gain familiarity with customer operations and work collaboratively to ensure deliveries are made on time and in excellent condition, helping Sysco reinforce its standard of exceptional service. This role demands physical capability, as drivers will be expected to handle freight that can weigh up to 100 pounds repeatedly while maintaining safety standards. Flexibility is also a key component, as the role may require overtime, weekend, and holiday shifts depending on business demand.
